according to my MOROSO power speed calculator a 2500 pound race car with a 200 pound driver would need 858 horse power to run 8.95.
858 horse power from a junk yard motor? another calculator at http://robrobinette.com/et.htm shows it takes 875 horsepower to go 8.93. a junk yard motor? what's your thoughts? hype or truth? |
